Burke-1537 and Burk-683 are not ready to be merged because: Only thing connecting them (different parents) is identical birth and death dates. Not enough evidence to throw out all the dissimilar information...

Burch-2229 Mark Burch
Burke-1537 and Burk-683 appear to represent the same person because: same dates but different parents

Burke-4116 and Burk-683 are not ready to be merged because: I'm postponing this match as it's unclear that Burk is the correct last name. There is some evidence in the Burke-4116 profile that Burke may be the correct last name.

Assuming spelling of surname Burke

Is correct if he was in the regiment.
